Hello All

So I have been working on my M1079 non stop for weeks doing a ton of maintenance to it. Coolant, thermostat, engine oil, both fuel filters, water separator, front and rear diffs, ATF conversion, fan belts, fan belt idlers, air filter, grease chassis, etc.

When I went to drain the front driver side hub I found it was under very high air pressure. I would guess 55-65 PSI. The passenger side was fine when I drained it, no pressure, have any of you heard of this problem? Any ideas on how to repair it?

Thanks so much :)

Seth
